look for posts by goodfellafd3s, he no doubt has pics of ceramic coated parts. You usually have the choice of the chrome-ish looking coat or the brown/black-ish looking. Ceramic is more for heat transfer prevention, while powdercoat is more for appearance of lower-temp (non exhaust) parts but doesnt have much of any heat transfer properties.
